Note 116 — Chapter XII
Reading edition
See the “Diary and Correspondence” of Dr. Doddridge. The letter of Nathaniel Neale, Esq., whose father was the historian of the Puritans, deserves particular attention, for the severity and bitterness of its style. The Christian simplicity and gentle firmness displayed in the Doctor’s able and manly defence of himself and his pupils from the aspersions of their assailants, reflect the highest honour on his character.
